SUN SEA SAND & BOATS

Folkestone was overflowing with people today, the hottest day of the year so far, lets wish for many more. I loved watching the families row out in dinghies to their boats then sailing of out the harbour, wondering where they will go. Children waiting for the tide to go out so they can build their sand castles, running about getting very impatient. Parents wishing they could just sit and chill, lets hope the bars don’t run out of beer and the ice cream keeps flowing.

The Harbour Arm was bursting at the seams with so many people and just what the traders wanted as the year has been very slow to start. You can hear the music from afar mixing with happy chatter, it really does make everyone happy this thing called sunshine.

I can smell the barbecues as the sausages are cooked to perfection and the sea food from the harbour, I cannot resist some crab sticks, prawns and mussels.

I am sure the children will sleep well tonight almost as well as the parents lol.

Breakfast was made by two of my younger grandchildren, aged 12 and 10. Pretty hilarious to listen to and rather delicious, despite a couple of “do-overs”. All in all a good day. I have a niece who lives in the UK and I think you have a Mothering Sunday but I am not sure when it is.
